What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing removes a small amount of material to restore a flat surface; replacement installs new OEM rotors when thickness or damage exceeds safe limits.

• All warranty-covered repairs must be completed at a certified dealership to keep coverage valid; we’ll explain warranty impact before you decide.
